Antonio da Silva

Antonio Da Silva is an award-winning Portuguese artist filmmaker based in London since 2005. With the objective of combining his interests in cinema, performance and visual arts, he undertook two master degrees in London, the first in Fine Arts at Central Saint Martins and the second in Dance for the Screen at The Place - London Contemporary Dance School. Experimenting is the core of his work, he is interested in exploring different artistic genres, both in terms of technique and content. He has always been fascinated by male sex and sexuality. He became increasingly frustrated with how moving image explored this and has begun to make it the subject of his films over the last two years. He doesn’t consider himself a pornographer but a filmmaker who uses his background to choreograph short films with explicit sex themes.
